I am the A-Levels Psychology Teacher at Modern College, Mauritius and the Subject Expert for Cambridge AS and A-Levels Psychology at Podar International School, Mumbai.
Having my online lessons referenced in the Cambridge teachers' AS and A levels manual for guiding students, I have established my reputation as a tutor based solely on merit. I hold the distinction of being a UGC SET and NET first attempt ranker in psychology.
In my more than 9 years of experience of tutoring, I have helped students obtain As in their A-Levels and 7s in their IBDP Psychology IAs and EAs. I have tutored and provided consultation for assignments to students from London, UAE, UK, Canada, Australia, Dubai, Singapore, Bangladesh and all over India.
I have created my global presence online with my website, video channel; and my blog which has repeatedly received mention as a resource for teachers in the Cambridge A-Levels curriculum; and an offer from professor Saul McLeod for purchase and integration into his prestigious international psychology website. My sample notes videos are used by hundreds of students and teachers internationally.

My Teaching Style involves-
● Exam-oriented preparation- • past paper practice from the very first class without any compromise on conceptual clarity;
● Use of digital blackboard- • for continuous presentation of material being taught and answer writing practice for immersive learning;
● Step-by-step solving of statistical sums- • with practice of sums in curriculum and numerous extra examples;
● Past paper practice- • answer correction with complete feedback for improvement;
● Guidance for software-based assignments- • as prescribed by the school college - SPSS, R, MS Excel, Opensesame, etc.
● Regularity and punctuality of classes- • completion of all assignment work much ahead of submission dates to reduce stress on students
● Involvement with parents- • contact with students only on WhatsApp groups with their parents
● Flexibility in teaching- • tutoring for extra subjects and projects including IB PYP personal project, BA and MA Economics, Sociology, Philosophy, History, Political Science and English and more.

My other experience includes-
● International Research Work-

● Extracurricular Activities for Professorship-
